Does anyone have the paint color code that was used for the rear springs on the 914. They were painted black and then had a color paint mark on the spring to designate the spring rate....I have seen some marked green and some yellow...
Thanks...John |

According to the factory manual, cars built after 19 May 72 had 10mm longer springs.
Group 1 220-227 kp 1 green dot Group 2 227-233 kp 2 green dots Group 3 233-240 kp 3 green dots It also seems like I remember something about the early springs having red and or white dots on them but I found nothing in the factory manual to support this. |
